10 Predictions For UFC 196

3. Gian Villante vs. Ilir Latifi

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=i5jw-RMJFxw Weight Class: Light Heavyweight Gian Villante (14-6) is a man both Tom Lawlor and Corey Anderson have faced (Lawlor won, Anderson did not). Here, Villante returns to take on Swedish slugger Ilir Latifi (11-4 (1)), who has done quite well in a UFC run that began when he had to step in on short notice for teammate Alexander Gustafsson. Someone is likely being put to sleep in this fight. The big question is: who? You have two men with serious knockout power, who are pretty evenly matched. Villante is coming off a win, Latifi is on a two fight streak. Career wise, Latifi has been more consistent, but Villante is more varied in his striking. It's a coin toss, really. We'll take Latifi.
